Subject: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 1378407] [NEW] [feature request] Partition table wrapper for single-filesystem images
Date: Tue, 07 Oct 2014 15:11:41 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141007151141.32185.92995.malonedeb@gac.canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20141007151141.32185.92995.malonedeb@gac.canonical.com

Public bug reported:

Suppose you have a single filesystem image. It would be nice if QEMU
could generate a virtual partition table for it and make it available to
the guest as a partitioned disk. Otherwise you have to use workarounds
like this:
wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/QEMU#Simulate_virtual_disk_with_MBR_using_linear_RAID

It should be relatively easy to do on top of existing vvfat code.

** Affects: qemu
